3 Ways to Make Prayer a Habit
This is not going to make me look like a good person, but for the longest time, I was unsure of the verse in 1 Thessalonians that says, “Never stop praying.” Other versions translate it as “Pray without ceasing” or “Pray continually.” But regardless of the translation, all I could think was, “That sounds….like a lot of work.” Maybe it goes back to when I was a kid and took it way too literally.

When You’re Facing a Tough Decision
I am the most indecisive person I know….at least, I think I am. Maybe I’m not. On top of that, I am a chronic people pleaser. Add those things together, and you can imagine the anxiety I accidentally carry around most days when it comes to making decisions.
